Rev Martin Hodson, General Director, Baptist Union
God of All History, we light a candle of Hope to celebrate with all your people as we watch and wait, for Your plans and promises to be fulfilled. God of the past, the present, and the future, we thank You that Your life is faithful and You love us uniquely. You loved us before we knew anything about you, you care for us in every moment of our lives. You know our deepest thoughts, our highest hopes and our greatest fears. You know the best and the worst in us and still you love us. Thank you for you never let us go. Thank you for the plans and promises you have made for us, which give us hope for today and tomorrow. God of our past our present and our future receive our thanks and praise which we offer in Jesus name. Amen
